The entire visiting team slipped on the grass, which had been sodden by the rain on the Blau-Weiss Linz pitch on Saturday night. A mistake in the build-up game and Steyr goalie Florian Eres rang the bell, who parried Fally Mayulus’ shot in the 11th minute, but was powerless against Paul Mensah’s follow-up. So the match for the red and white was again on the incline. A shot from Ogi Sivrikaya (25′) went too central, meaning that the scene only had statistical value. On the other hand, Linz were much more dangerous again and Eres kept the Steyr team in the game with a brilliant save against Matthias Seidl. The only change after the break was that it had stopped raining. Mayulu closed the sack with a brace (53′, 58′) before SKV trainer Daniel Madlener opened with a three-man chain. More than the consolation goal to make it 4-1 in the 91st minute – Linzer had converted a penalty in the meantime – was no longer possible.
